法国摄影师Fabien Seguin，现居中国。这个老外自己动手做的《黑龙江》摄影集吸引了我的目光，看看他是怎么说的：“2009年的夏天，我基本待在哈尔滨和大庆，用一台135相机拍照。起初，这些照片不过是我的个人随记。不过，就在一个多月前，我觉得我得用它们来做些什么，比如说整理一下，做本书。于是我在武汉尝试着使用惠普Indigo印刷机做了这本38页，21张照片的书，同时，我也学会了InDesign。”

“I shot this series in summer 2009 mainly in Harbin and Daqing on 35mm film. These pictures were just really notes for myself in the beginning. Then, one month ago, I thought I could do something with these pictures, organize them in a book form, and I did this mostly as a test to try the only printer using Hp Indigo technology in Wuhan and to start learning how to use InDesign.” - Fabien Seguin

Born in 1980 in the French Alps, Fabien Seguin is a fine art photographer currently based in China. The book is soft cover, perfect bound, 38 pages, 21 images.

Issue two of literary and arts quarterly, The White Review has arrived. Edited by Benjamin Eastham and Jacques Testard, and under the continued art direction of Ray O’Meara, No.2 strengthens their resolve to “stay close to new writing and emerging art” in a journal format, refined aesthetically and collected within chapter-like sections. The range of writing and sharp interviews, extended and unapologetic, include William Boyd, Richard Wentworth and JH Engström, whose accompanying photographic series Back Home is beautifully delivered with as much weight as the texts that flank it.

“一张照片到底能够表现多少真实和思想主张呢？我不知道，我只知道我不愿意停下来，在这个现实与虚幻交汇的世界，无数次地按下我手中的相机，去寻求与某个事物精神上的突然邂逅，以得到一种暂时的逃脱和无比快感。我继续着，并深深地沉溺其中……不管我拍摄的是一片杂乱的树林；一个走向好似绿野仙踪的少年背影；一条针脚缝得像拉链的大腿，都只是我与现实相撞的刹那，内心颤抖的印记……” - 孙彦初

“冷漠的对待他人和生活，是设计的头等大罪”，Dieter Rams说。Dieter Rams的生活和工作始终围绕着“思考人们如何生活，以及如何生活的更好”这个中心点，他在1960年代设计的产品至今仍被人所用。Jonathan Ive为该书撰写了序言，Klaus Kemp为我们讲述了老爷子的早年生活，他是一位建筑师，这种知识背景一直影响了他一生的创作。本书不但分享了Rams的优秀设计和观点，更是Rams的生活和工作的一次全面而深入的记录。绝大部分的内容着眼于在他在Braun和Vitsoe担任工业设计师期间的工作，并从设计草图、技术图纸、设计原型、成品、市场营销等方面的物料的展示，串联起Rams的工作过程和经历。除此之外，本书最精彩的两个章节应当属Rams自己的家——这位拥有建筑师背景的人唯一建造完成的房屋。本书共320页，由Phaidon出版，Kobi Benezri担任设计。

”Indifference towards people and the reality in which they live is actually the one and only cardinal sin in design” – Dieter Rams. Dieter Rams’ life and work are indelibly linked to his thoughts about how people live, and how they can live better. Products he designed in the 1960s are still being produced and sold today – only one demonstration of the strength of his work. This comprehensive monograph covers both Rams’ life and his work, as well as his ideas on good design, which continue to inspire designers and consumers today. A personal foreword by Jonathan Ive evokes the influence that Rams has had on his own work and, by extention, the objects with which so many of us share our everyday lives. An introduction and an essay by Klaus Kemp tell the story of Rams’ early life, his training as an architect, and the intellectual context in which his ideas were developed. The next four chapters examine Rams’ work and his life – which are more or less synonymous – in depth. This includes his role at Braun as well as the work he did for the furniture company Vitsoe. Each chapter includes sketches, prototypes, finished products and the marketing for those products, giving a complete picture of Rams’ work and its context. Two other chapters in this section present Rams’ own house, the only work of architecture that he completed, and examine the products he designed at the level of detail, a crucial aspect to his work. A further chapter examines Rams’ ‘ten commandments’ of good design and his credo, ‘less but better’, in the context of his role as head of design at Braun, and a final chapter explores his legacy in the work of contemporary designers including Naoto Fukasawa, Jonathan Ive, Sam Hecht, and Konstantin Grcic.

Émigré was a graphic design magazine published by Emigre Graphics between 1984 and 2005; It was first published in 1984 in San Francisco, California, USA. Art-directed by Dutch-born Rudy VanderLans using fonts designed by his wife, Czechoslovakian-born Zuzana Licko, Emigre was one of the first publications to use Macintosh computers and had a large influence on graphic designers moving into desktop publishing (DTP). Its variety of layouts, use of guest designers, and opinionated articles also had an effect on other design publications. Toshiaki Koga from IDEA Magazine featured an interview with Rudy VanderLans: here
